Countryfile - Season 33 Episode 38
Matt Baker and Charlotte Smith are with four of the UK’s top shepherds and their amazing sheepdogs for this year’s Countryfile One Man and His Dog competition. It is taking place on a tough course in the grounds of historic Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire, which really test man and dog alike. Coronavirus means things have to look a little different this year, with just one competitor from each home nation vying for glory. But this socially-distanced shepherding showdown is as testing and competitive as ever. The premier league of shepherding talent from England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland must battle it out over two rounds – the singles, where they run one dog, and the notoriously difficult brace, where they must work two dogs at the same time. Whoever gets the highest combined score secures the pride of their nation and the coveted One Man and His Dog title. Who has got what it takes?
